New wheels - BC Forged HB29

After looking for new wheels for months, and thanks to everyone for all the info, photos and suggestions. I finally made the decision!

Here's what I got:
- Brand: BC Forged
- Model: HB29 Deep Concave, standard matt black finish
- Type: 2-Piece modular, forged
- Front: 19 x 8.5J ET45 with MPSS 235/35/R19
- Rear: 19 x 11J ET55 with MPSS 305/30/R19

They took 5 weeks to arrive, and oh boy, it was certainly worth the wait!







And the fitment was spot on:


This kicks off a series of transformation. A lot more is being done to the car thru out the next few weeks.

More to come

those looks great. I have the same wheels, but with matte black centers and gunmetal outer lip. The concave look is really modern and the 9 spoke wheel is classic. it's a nice combo.

Congrats

Yeah. Seems like very few people have BC wheels as it was very hard to find info about them. Thank you for the info and showing the photos. I was going to paint the original lug nuts to black, but they were quite dusty so I decided to replace them new set of new black nuts.

Great choice of color !!
I used the same red accent on the front spoiler, and I thought I was the only one

Did you consider painting the entire mirrors in Red ? This is my next step, when I'm done figuring out the Pentosin leak...

What are the LED tail-lights that you are using, if you don't mind me asking ?

Cool! Love to see some pics of yours. I used to have the Turbo style rims too. Here's how my car looked before:

https://www.6speedonline.com/forums/...lasti-dip.html

My car will be going thru a complete transformation in the next few weeks, and I'll probably keep the red on mirror only at the lower half, don't want to over done it and certainly don't want it to look like a GT3RS-wanna-be either ;-)

The LED tail lights are DEPO's, which will be replaced soon too
